Shallow Water Reverberation and Low Frequency Seabed Scattering

Abstract

The long-term goal of this work is: (1) to develop a reverberation model for predicting the reverberation level and the echo-to-reverberation ratio in shallow water (SW) in a frequency band of 100-3000 Hz, and (2) to analyze the mechanisms of seabed scattering at low frequencies (LF). The objective is to set up a quality reverberation data base, to validate the SW reverberation model derived from the energy flux method , and to charaterize LF seabed scattering parameters.
